Wowza! My most awesome Secret Craftster sent me the greatest package - an incredible selection of knitting patterns - socks, hats, scarves, mittens...and best of all, instructions for reading Japanese knitting patterns. Very helpful, since I'm obsessed with Japanese knitting mags and can't read a word of 'em. Included is a page of useful knit-related phrases in Japanese and English, including my new catchphrase, "Akikaze ni fukiyose rarete keito ten", or "Autmn winds always drift me into yarn shops."

I forgot to post my likes and dislikes.I love the color purple. I am a purse fanatic, love jewelry. scrapbooking, horses --anything to do with horses. I hate the color blue, black, and yellow. I despise yellow. Soaps. I hope this helps. I am basiclly easy to please.Thanks to my secret craftster, I loved my scarf, and pin. I am going to try to take pics of soon and will post them on here.Thanks again.mommiemed

Here's pics!A very cute little knitted pouch:a yummy smelling candle and etched candle holder:some oh so cute earrings (i just bought a green shirt today that'll match perfect):And the house favorite a octopus kitty toy:

Wow I didnt realize that there was a gallery for this yet! My camera is not cooperating but my SC has sent me 2 wonderful gifts The first one was a lovely journal book that I have been using to keep track of crafty projects and ideas; the second one was a book on crocheting which I have found some very nifty tips in!

Considering Second's post, perhaps a reminder to make surely sure that if anyone has recieved something from their secret crafter to please please please post so that no one get's kicked out of the swap!
